The Walking Dead

Sometimes you never love a soul

After life, coffin is the world,
In the abyss of darkness,
Seasons changed; never known,
To the moment time compels.

Full moon; Orchestra of virgin sounds,
Echoed high over the lime light,
Conscious peeped inside the coffin,
The strength of life blooms.

Crawled out, Coffin was nothing,
As if not a fantasy or hallucination,
Path was shown by the divine,
Walked, jerking, pounding and leaping.

Knocked the door of love,
Once flowered life long,
Opened the door, curious eyes bulges out,
Screaming and fled for safety.

Sat beside Piano,
Tone of sadness, echoed high,
Crowd appeared with weapons,
Crushing the door to open.

Saw a skeleton as musical composer,
Feared, but never gave a second chance,
Crushed and thrown into pieces,
Wife and children prayed for mercy.

Coffin was built again,
Scattered bones are carried,
Thrown inside coffin,
Never ever liked the smiling soul.

Died, was buried, rose from the coffin, then torn to pieces by an angry mob and buried again. Might say the fellow is having a rough day.

This is rather haunting...yet the images are very vivid...it almost feels like a dream or a fantasy..."scattered bones are carried, thrown inside coffin" nice write, especially for Halloween, coming up!

I see you have been visited by JayG
Always lurking in the shadows, but with good intent.
I think this one might have been saved for Halloween or perhaps you could do an embellished addendum when it comes around.
Good read.

Well, you have made her dead, give her life back by taking into your arms, see fantasy or passion her dreams were, I know there was no second chance for him because he never had only at first chance he was done. Hope you understand in the coffin both together he was she she was he. I am learning Vocabulary just to please you and keep your pride up.
